I had been thinking that Anticipation should be doing convention programming updates on Twiiter and low and behold Scott Edelman observed the practice happening spontaneously at Readercon.

In Montreal the problem will be the lack of American cell phone coverage.

Still people may be able to use Wifi to update Twitter.

We just did Anthrocon and program reminders and updates streamed out all weekend and si many people cheered the con for doing it as they
missed less events and saw things they normally wouldn't have.

That is why I want to do something like that at worldcon.

I think our Press Room is planning something.

Something for ConClave and ConFusion and Penguicon should be in the works too.

Now I'm wondering whether my cellphone (Verizon in Illinois) can be made to work in Montreal, and how much it will cost.
